Karl was tutoring my high school daughter for help with her SATs. He was great with her and always kept us informed of her progress. We were happy with his services.

Karl has been helping my son prep for both the PSAT and SAT. He does a good job assessing the students skill level and works from there. He is patient and clearly explains the task at hand. My son actually looks forward to his sessions with Karl. Not only does he help with test prep, but he has helped greatly with improving study skills and habits as well. He is very easy to communicate with and he always responds in a timely manner. The sessions are conveniently set up through zoom and the entire process is very turn key and user friendly. We are very happy with Karl’s tutoring services and plan to continue with him as well.

We hired Karl at the last minute to help our twins bring up their ACT math score. He was fabulous and worked with them for several hours a week over a 4-week period. Kids just received their scores today and were thrilled to see math went up 4-5 points, and both of them are now in their desired range for colleges! I would highly recommend Karl! Thank you, Karl!
